Ok I'm sure most of you guys know this trick but some don't and it works great, I even use it on braid. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TDI5kwR5zjc

The first time I tried this I couldn't believe this. It really works great!!!

I've been looking for a video because I don't explain it very well, he makes it easy.

I saw that video a while ago and it is definitely the best way to clear a backlash. I've never had one I couldn't clear using this technique. Great post!

I dont know how it works but it does. I turn my reel 2 full turns though and it seems to get every one the first time.

I have always givin the backlash a little pick with my fingertips then super slowly and steady like, pulled on the main line. Have to give this method a try and see which works best for me. Thanks.
